Thanks for taking the time to share your concern and allowing us to respond. Just wanted to share a couple facts with you. Our last increase to range fees was in 2006, and an increase was needed to cover increasing operational cost. We discussed our the options at length and decided to increase the individual token cost, and leave the range cards/packages status quo for the time being, therefore the avid practicer would not be affected. With the increase in the token price, we had to address the warm-up bucket, and we felt this was the best option available to us.



We respect your opinion, and while you may not agree, hopefully this will give you some additional information to consider.



Best Regards…Erik
Thanks for the information. I guess I better make sure I update my range card before they hike that . I liked the $1 for 12 balls to hit before a round. It is just the right amount of golf shots to see what hurts and which way the ball is going that day. At $2 for 18 I might as well spend $3 for a bucket of 48 and share or sell ....

Oh well.... thanks for taking the time to post the details.
